1308 This Wine Is… Heaven-defying!

The wine that cost one million Nether Crystals a glass was not for ordinary people, but the people present were not ordinary people. Whether it was Prison Overlord Ying Long, Yellow Spring Great Sage, or Nether King Er Ha, they were all extraordinary figures of Earth Prison. Their status was prestigious, and no one dared to offend them. 

Given their status, they naturally had plenty of Nether Crystals. Although one million was a huge sum, they could still afford it.

In the Netherworld, Nether Crystals were not only used as a currency but also as one of their cultivation resources. The greater one's strength, the more Nether Crystals one stored, for the Nether energy contained in them could aid their cultivation. It was also the reason why it became the currency commonly used in Ruin Prison, Earth Prison, and Nether Prison. 

However, one million Nether Crystals was still not a small amount. Many small aristocratic families could barely come out with so many crystals even after selling everything they owned. 

Bu Fang picked up the cloth bag Prison Overlord Ying Long threw on the table. There was storage space inside filled with heaps of Nether Crystals. He counted one million, no more and no less, and that caused him to give the Prison Overlord a surprised look.

'This old fellow is bold. He didn't even blink when paying. It looks like he's a rich guy…' Bu Fang twitched the corner of his mouth and gave Prison Overlord Ying Long a meaningful look.

"Quick, give me the wine. I've never drunk wine so expensive in my entire life… I want to give it a good taste…" 

Prison Overlord Ying Long leaned on the Hollow Eye Staff, his withered face twitching. He felt as if his heart was bleeding as he watched Bu Fang put away his cloth bag. Although he was a Prison Overlord, those were his hard-earned money. 

Bu Fang didn't say anything but focused his eyes. With a flip of his hand, a small blue-and-white porcelain wine glass appeared in his grip. It was like a mini goblet, about the size of two thumbs combined, and it had a tiny foot.

Holding its stem between his thumb and index finger, Bu Fang unleashed his divine will. Then, he pointed out his other index finger at the wine jar. A stream of rainbow-colored wine immediately slithered out of the jar like a tiny snake and filled the glass.

The crisp sound of the wine filling the glass was melodious, like that of marbles falling onto a jade plate, while the rainbow-colored wine swirled in the glass under Bu Fang's control. The bouquet was rich and mellow, lingering in one's heart. 

After filling the glass, Bu Fang covered the jade jar with its lid again. Holding the stem, he handed the glass to Prison Overlord Ying Long.

The people present were somewhat struck dumb. Even Bu Fang was twitching the corner of his mouth. 'Sure enough… with the System's nasty nature, this wine glass is a little too tiny…'

Prison Overlord Ying Long took the wine glass. Looking at the wine, his face twitched even more violently. He thought he must be crazy to have thrown out one million Nether Crystals without hesitation and bought a glass of wine that was so tiny. 

'This is not even enough to fill the gap between my teeth… How am I supposed to feel happy after drinking it? Isn't drinking wine for pleasure? The wine is so little that I'll feel a toothpick prickling at my heart after drinking it…'

If it weren't for the one million Nether Crystals he didn't want to waste, Prison Overlord Ying Long would have thrown this tiny glass of wine in Bu Fang's paralyzed face now. 

What a profiteer!

'Are you surprised?' Nether King Er Ha grinned at Ying Long's livid face and felt happy. The old Prison Overlord's look reminded him of how he felt when he first asked Bu Fang for spicy strips. At that time, he was so naive, cute, and easy to fool. For the sake of spicy strips, he was willing to sell his body, even his handsome face.

'Ying Long old man must have felt the same now.'

Yellow Spring Great Sage was grinning from ear to ear at the side. His heart filled with joy as he kept rubbing the fist-size jade wine jar in his hand. His hobby of holding grass was likely to change into holding the wine jar. Initially, he thought his fist-size wine jar could only fill about ten glasses, but after he saw the wine glass, he thought Bu Fang was really a fair seller.

'He deserves my favorite grass…' he mused. 

"Just give it a taste. You've paid for it, right? It will be a waste if you don't try it," Bu Fang said seriously as he looked at Ying Long's painful look.

His words stabbed through Ying Long's heart like an invisible arrow. The old Prison Overlord snorted and tapped the floor with the Hollow Eye Staff. Then, while staring fiercely at Bu Fang, he pursed his lips, held the glass between his thumb and index finger, poured the wine into his mouth, and downed it in one gulp.

Even though it was only so little, he wanted to drink it like it was a large bowl of wine. Drinking is all about the heroic spirit!

The moment the wine entered his mouth, Prison Overlord Ying Long's cloudy eyes went wide and filled with disbelief. It was as if he was not drinking a tiny glass of wine, but one whole Yellow Spring River! He had a feeling that the water of the Yellow Spring River was pouring from the sky into his throat, filling his body with vast Nether energy and turning his face red in an instant. The rich bouquet enveloped him like the ocean, and he couldn't help floating in it. At that moment, Ying Long felt that he had gone back to the time when he was still a little dragon, flapping his wings and chasing after the neighbor's little female dragon all over the mountain. That was his lost youth. 

"Ah! My long lost youth!"

Plop.

Prison Overlord Ying Long narrowed his eyes and craned his neck as the corners of his mouth curved upward to reveal an intoxicating look.

As soon as he drank the wine, his face flushed. The next moment, he fell to the ground with a plop. The Hollow Eye Staff was thrown to the side, his limbs were waving incessantly, and he even let out a deep laugh.

Judging by his look, he was obviously drunk!

All the people in the restaurant widened their eyes and exchanged glances, while the few Prison Overlords looked as if they had just seen ghosts. They felt incredulous as they watched Ying Long grinning like a child and waving his limbs on the ground. Was this really their chief, the stern and unsmiling Prison Overlord Ying Long? He looked exactly like a drunkard!

Everyone sucked in a cold breath and turned to look at Bu Fang.

Bu Fang shrugged to show his innocence. "This old fellow's strength is good… but I never thought he's such a lousy drinker," he said, spreading his arms.

A lousy drinker? He said Prison Overlord Ying Long was a lousy drinker?

Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Even if Ying Long was a lousy drinker, he was still a Great Saint. He would most probably stay sober even after he drank the whole Yellow Spring River. However, he was drunk like a child after drinking a tiny glass of wine. Was this wine… toxic?

"So strong?" Holding a spicy strip between his lips, Nether King Er Ha also gasped and felt somewhat incredulous.

Suddenly, Prison Overlord Ying Long stopped moving on the ground. Then, energy began to surge over his body. All the people present were very familiar with this kind of feeling.

Yellow Spring Great Sage narrowed his eyes, while Lord Dog stuck out his tongue.

"This old fellow is about to make a breakthrough after drinking a glass of wine?"

Buzz… 

Prison Overlord Ying Long's aura grew stronger and stronger, while a terrible fluctuation began to spread. That was the telltale sign that he was about to break through.

Lord Dog thought for a while, then he said, "The wine is infused with three Wills of the Great Path, thus making it a super nourishing wine even for Great Saints. It can feed to the Will of the Great Path in the small world formed by the Great Saint."

Lord Dog's analysis made all the people present gasp. Yellow Spring Great Sage held his wine jar even tighter.

"This old fellow is drunk. I'm afraid that he can only transcend his tribulation after waking up… The Great Saint Tribulation cannot be transcended while sleeping," Lord Dog said.

"You guys bring Ying Long back first…" Nether King Er Ha told Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao as he squinted at Ying Long.

At the command, the two Prison Overlords picked up the staff, helped Ying Long up, and left the restaurant.

With their departure, the news of Prison Overlord Ying Long passing out in the restaurant spread in an instant. All the people, who were watching the Heavenly Palace Tribulation in the sky, immediately exploded into an uproar.

"What? Prison Overlord Ying Long passed out after drinking just one glass of wine?!"

"He made a breakthrough after drinking a glass of wine? Prison Overlord Ying Long is a Great Saint!"

"At the Great Saint level, to break through each revolution is as difficult as scaling heaven! The wine can actually help a Great Saint breakthrough? Doesn't that make it a… divine elixir for us Little Saints?!" 

The shock brought by the news was huge. For a moment, the crowd watching the Heavenly Palace Tribulation in the sky shifted their attention to the restaurant. Their desire for such great wine grew even stronger. A wine that could help them break through was enough to drive them crazy, especially to those who were stuck at bottlenecks and about to reach the end of their lives. The wine was simply a divine elixir that everyone wished for.

The people in the restaurant were breathing rapidly.

With the spicy strip dangling between his lips, Nether King Er Ha also threw out a cloth bag. Earth Prison was his main court, and he had plenty of Nether Crystals here. He was Earth Prison's Nether King after all, and he would look bad if he was poor.

"Here are one million Nether Crystals. Bu Fang young man, give me a glass of wine! I'm already thirsty!" Nether King Er Ha said impatiently.

Bu Fang happily put away Nether King Er Ha's cloth bag and nodded with a straight face. Then, he repeated the same steps and filled a glass with wine. The strong bouquet drifted far and wide again, intoxicating all the people both outside and inside the restaurant.

The wine was not much, but its aroma was enchanting. The people lining outside the restaurant all crowded together, craning their necks and looking at Nether King Er Ha. Well, most of them were actually staring at the glass of wine in his hand.

Was this wine really so amazing? Now was the time to find out if it really could help a Great Saint make a breakthrough. Soon, everyone would find out if Prison Overlord Ying Long's breakthrough was just a coincidence or because of the wine.

Nether King Er Ha gave the wine a deep sniff, then an intoxicated look came over his face. The next moment, he downed the wine in one gulp.

A stream of wine entered his stomach like a torrent. He felt as if the Yellow Spring River was rushing through his throat. The feeling made Nether King Er Ha tremble all over. Even the spicy strip between his lips fell off unknowingly.

Nether King Er Ha turned his head mechanically and glanced at the spicy strip on the floor. He reached out a hand to grab it, but he found that the spicy strip kept getting blurry, turning from one spicy strip to two, then from two to four.

'Ugh? I can have more spicy strips after drinking the wine?'

A flush instantly emerged on Nether King Er Ha's handsome face, and he began to grin.

The crowd exchanged glances.

What the heck?

Plop.

Another muffled sound rang out as Nether King Er Ha collapsed to the ground.

"Spicy strips… So many spicy strips! I'm now a man with a large stack of spicy strips… I now have an endless supply of spicy strips… Bu Fang young man, I have many spicy strips… You stinky cu*t can no longer embezzle my spicy strips!"

Lying on the ground, Nether King kept reaching out his hands to grab the air in front of him, grinning like a fool.

Bu Fang twitched the corner of his mouth as he glanced coldly at Nether King Er Ha. 'In wine, there is truth. It seems Er Ha is not happy with me deep down…' He narrowed his eyes.

You Ji and Luo Ji twitched the corners of their mouths.

Without a doubt, Nether King Er Ha was drunk and saw a vision after drinking the wine, just like what happened to Prison Overlord Ying Long. Of course, what was most important for them was to sense the changes in his aura. All the people were not concerned by his words and began to pay attention to his aura.

Buzz… 

Sure enough, Nether King Er Ha's aura began to surge. His cultivation base, which had just made a breakthrough, began to soar.

"He has broken through?!"

"Heaven! This is not a coincidence! This wine is… heaven-defying!"

"It seems that the chances of breaking through after drinking a glass of this wine are one hundred percent!" 

Everyone was utterly shocked and gasped. 

Nether King Er Ha was a Great Saint, and he had just made a breakthrough. It should be difficult for him to break through again in a short time. However, after drinking a glass of wine, his aura surged, and his cultivation base began to change and improve under the three Wills of the Great Path in the wine.

The news would shock the whole Earth Prison! Everybody was crazy!

For a moment, the group of people outside the restaurant wanted to rush through the door.

Bu Fang gave the noisy crowd an indifferent look and said in a faint voice, "Get in line. Troublemakers will have to bear serious consequences."

As soon as his voice rang out, the sound of heavy footsteps echoed out. Whitey walked over from outside the restaurant with lightning arcs dancing across its body. In its huge palm, it held a golden lightning knife, which exuded a mighty aura.

"Also, the price for the supreme-grade Yellow Spring Helplessness Wine is one million Nether Crystals per glass. If you can afford it, get in line. Otherwise… you can turn around and leave now," Bu Fang added.

This time, his words stunned all the people present, and they fell silent.

One million Nether Crystals for a glass of wine?

Walking with his enchanting cat-like steps, Lord Dog came to Nether King Er Ha's side, reached out a paw, and ran it up and down the drunk Nether King's body. Before long, he found a cloth bag. After yanking it up and counting the contents, he grinned.

In front of the shocked eyes of Luo Ji, You Ji, and the others, Lord Dog threw the cloth bag to Bu Fang.

"Bu Fang boy… give me a glass of wine. Let's see if this wine can help me make a breakthrough?" Lord Dog said.

Yellow Spring Great Sage and the others paused, then their breathing became rapid. Given Lord Dog's mighty cultivation base, if this wine could help him make a breakthrough, it would really be a heaven-defying wine!
